Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?’…. thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. [1 Corinthians 15:55-57]

Alleluia! He is risen! He is risen indeed, Alleluia!

The flowers for Easter last year were spectacular as these photos by John Gillard testify.

The ‘Holy Mowers’ meet at All Saints every Thursday morning from 10 to 12.30 to mow, prune, cut, rake, edge, get rid of mole hills and strim. Anyone who has a love for our ancient church is welcome. You do a job which suits your physical ability and go when you’ve had enough. We have coffee/tea at about 11.00. We’ve been doing it for two years now and the churchyard is looking immeasurably better so this year we’re entering the Best-Kept Churchyard competition. Scroll down and click on the link to our maintenance plan. Our work is cut out: it’s the 2nd largest churchyard in England – the biggest is in Newcastle. Our Team Leader – aka Holiest Mower – is Sheila Crow who has won the ‘Pride of Tendring’ Award for her unsung services to the community. Her tel no is 01206 30 65 74 Below are some pictures – but we don’t sit around drinking coffee all the time!

Manfred Mann: An Evening with Paul and Fiona: 24th Sept 2016

What a night it was! Paul (ex Manfred Mann) and Fiona (West End and film Actress) convincingly and passionately told of their journey of faith interspersed with songs from their album ‘Personal’. It was a full house with people from far and near. Only 17 of the 300 tickets were unsold. But we pray that folk in Brightlingsea will continue to talk about Paul and Fiona for months and years to come and that what they said will lodge in the hearts of the many present who have not yet accepted Jesus and will bear fruit for the Kingdom of Heaven
